Anlauf
In the spring of 1969, a young man from a small town arrives at the partner company in Berlin, where he falls in love with red-haired Rita. A love story about "everyday heroes," in which director Egon Günther continues his idiosyncratic formal experiments with actress Jutta Hoffmann, which he began in "Junge Frau von 1914" (Young Woman of 1914).
